SECURITY MEASURES
CAMBRIDGE HOUSE undertakes to comply with its obligation of secrecy of personal data and its duty to store them and will adopt all technical and organisational measures to guarantee the security of personal data and avoid its alteration, loss, unauthorised processing or access, taking into account the state of the technology, the nature of the data stored and the risks to which they are exposed.
The CAMBRIDGE HOUSE Website uses cookies. See the specific clause on cookies.
The website has information security measures, generally used for example: firewalls, access control procedures and cryptographic mechanisms, in order to prevent unauthorised access to the data provided.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is an industry standard technology that creates a secure environment for information exchanged between your browser and online-school.cambridge-house.com. SSL encrypts all information you input before it is sent to Cambridge House Online School. Security data such as your user number, password, date of birth and enrolment process information is encrypted in the encryption/cryptography process.
In general, you can tell if you are on a secure page by looking at the symbol at the bottom of your browser – usually a padlock. Another way to tell if your browser is in secure mode is to look at the Internet address the browser shows you. In standard, non-secure mode, the address would start with “http://” and, in secure mode, with “https://”. The “s” stands for “secure”. Whenever you perform a transaction with Cambridge House Online School the address will indicate https:// as we always use the SSL protocol for the exchange of information between our server and your computer for all transactions.
